Kerry attacks Palin as "Cheney-esque" (What a moron alert)
Politico ^ | August 31, 2008 | Martin Kady II

Posted on 08/31/2008 9:26:45 AM PDT by Kaslin

Democrats have come up with a new line of attack line against John McCain's running mate Sarah Palin, saying she's another Dick Cheney.

Sen. John F. Kerry (D-Mass.) described Palin as a member of the "flat-earth caucus," who McCain picked purely to please the conservative base.

"With the choice of Gov. Palin, it’s the third term of Dick Cheney," Kerry said on ABC News' "This Week." "He’s chosen somebody who doesn’t believe climate change is man-made."

Kerry added that Hillary Rodham Clinton supporters should be offended if people suggest Palin was selected to draw some of the female vote away from the Barack Obama-Joe Biden ticket.

"It’s almost insulting to the Hillary supporters," Kerry said, calling Palin a "Cheneyesque social conservative who’s going to satisfy the base. John McCain is a prisoner of the right wing, not a maverick."

The Republican counter attack has been to play up Palin's credentials as "commander in chief" of the Alaska National Guard, with Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), saying "she’s tough, she’s talented, she’s ready to lead. … compard to Sen. Obama, she’s qualified beyond belief.”

“kerry described palin as a member of the flat-earth circus...”

another brilliant, holier-than-thou, god-like, smart, self-appointed-intellectual giant has judged that anyone who is not a liberal is a moron. (is their any end to their brilliance?; is it limitless?)

IMHO

he's overlooking the two big boobs his party has nominated.

I hope the party with the bigger boobs doesn't win or we're toast.

Aww...don’t be so hard on Kerry, he just reading his talking points. :)
Amazing how there is rarely an original thought amongst these people. And when there is an original thought-—it’s stupid. That’s why they rely on talking points!!!

I assure you, we Older Ladies do not have the slightest interest in seeing Dick Cheney in a dress. Nor Sarah Palin in a pantsuit, for that matter; she looks stunning in her usual outfits.

Mr. Mojo: Nah, she's a much better shot.

Considering Kerry's looks he shouldn't go moose hunting with her.
